Anybody know what I can do to either:
1) Tell the power-up routines to look at the eSATA?
or
2) Write the boot firmware to the SD card and configure it to get the rest of
the system from the eSATA?
Debug logs were saved, and can be provided upon request.

Does this mean that haveged is no longer needed on armhf hosts that are running

I notice my armhf (Cubox) host on Debian Testing that the haveged daemon does

somehow clobbered the u-boot image on the SD card? How would I test for that?

Normally, I use screen for that. It woke that way, incidentally, so it’s not a
